(USA) - The first politics forum of the semester kicked off last Thursday as Reed Gusciora, state assemblyman and professor of political science at the College, criticized the current New Jersey State and White House positions on same-sex marriage. "There isn't really equality in New Jersey," Gusciora said, referring to the recent Supreme Court decision on civil unions. Gusciora cited the similarities between Hawaii, Vermont and New Jersey. Each state's Supreme Court has ruled that civil unions must be allowed in the state. Marriage, however, has been an entirely different issue. Massachusetts remains the only state to grant full equality in terms of marriage.
